Arrows

Phil "The Power" Taylor trains for approximately 5-7 hrs a day..... that's more work than the average Chav does in his day (or us!!)..... I say bring it into the Olympics....
 
Ok.....how about an IT Geek's version of the Olympic Games ?

Event 1 : Hardcore C# Programming

The contestant has to write 101 lines of non-recursive and syntatically-correct code that will produce a tangible and measurable benefit to humankind. They must do this whilst they are naked and covered in honey inside a large barrel of red ants.

Event 2 : Coffee-a-thon

The contestants must go without coffee for 24 hours, and try to stay awake in a PM meeting to discuss "Operational Requirements" for a new system

Event 3 : Agent-Baiting

Each contestant will be scrutinised by a panel of recruitment consultants, who are attempting to solicit more business from the contestant. The contestant who successfully gets the agents eating shards of glass out of his hands, whilst giving nothing away to the agents will be deemed the winner.

Event 4 : Tape-Changing Dexterity

The contestant will enter an arena where there are 400 servers in various states of backup completion. They must take an ejected tape from a server once it ejects within 10 seconds and run to the media library in the middle of the arena and correctly label and file the tape away.

Event 5 : Social Skills

This event has been cancelled due to lack of qualified contestants

10 events? It would be all over in a weekend - and we wouldn't have to spend £1bn to host it. Center Parcs could cope...
And all the competitors should have to take part in the nude, just like they did in the good old days.

Isn't darts just the indoor version of the Javelin?
What, to see how far you can throw them?

Anyway, by 2012 Phil Taylor will be past it, and we'll lose out in the medals to dodgy dutchmen.

What about Wayne Mardle, Adrian Lewis and Peter Manley....?
